Baby Mystery Snail Colors

NeriteXMystery

  • #i
Howdy,

I am quite confused with the color of my baby mystery snails. They are almost 2 months old now, and are stake footed and their shells are wild colored, and striped. What confuses me is that their parents are both dark footed. The mother is a black striped olive, and father is a bluish/green. Will the babies trunk color soon plow dark, or remain pale?

Thanks in accelerate (^.^)

Edit: Forgot to mention that the babies heads are dark and the rest of the body is pale.

My single dark foot babe had a dark foot from the kickoff. I don't know about the genetics of snail colors though

That'due south interesting. Mayhap there is a recessive trait in a grandparent or even further?

That was what I was thinking.. Since the male parent is blue, one of the parents of the father could of possibly been ivory, and ivory snails take stake bodies...

Does anyone have pics of baby purple snails near a week and a half after they hatched? I think I might have a few from my hatchings. I as well think I take a couple gold/clear/white shells not exactly sure on the pes though on any of them nevertheless.
My adults are the colors of the 2 pictured and I had an ivory(not if sure if male or female, and sure if it mated but it passed away), and I had a gilded(was a male only also passed abroad).
second/3rd moving picture is of ane of the aureate/clear/white crush and a purplish color crush on a white stone.
Don't mind the other ones, there's ramshorn and bladder snails mixed in likewise.

They accept the "peppered" look of my baby blues when they hatch out and you tin meet them.

They do have a like brindled design on their shells. It'southward similar a low-cal purplish color correct now. They definitely stick out from the rest. I wish I could go better pics of them correct now. But they are withal and so small-scale and with the others on the drinking glass in same area my camera doesn't want to focus right.

Here is a semI good picture of what I believe are going to be purple? I accept a proficient bit of these ones mixed in the babies.

The kickoff looks like it will exist a dark human foot which may be purple, only it is more inept to be blue with the parents. The second looks like my ivory babies.

I'm trying to make a guide for new mystery snail breeders. I'd like everyone's expertise! In your experience, effectually what age could you lot tell which color your mystery snails were going to be and how? Bonus points for pics lol
I'll update this list every bit I get answers if I get answers.

Magenta-
Purple-
Blue-
Ivory-

Gold- probably ane of the easiest identifiable colors. You lot can typically tell at nativity that they're aureate because they will already have a gold tinted vanquish.

Jade-
Wild type-
Black-
Chestnut-

I will crash-land. Has I now have iii clutches.

Showtime one should be hatching presently.

The second i fell in and saved it. And then that one will be impact and go.

20180311_081016.jpg

The third one just happened this forenoon.

20180311_081152.jpg

I volition sentinel this and run into how it goes. And will update when things commencement to happen.

Female is Ivory
Male is Ivory and they other male was black/bawl brown

Pringlethesnail

  • #21
Sorry I've had a crazy week! If the but the ivory male person mated with the ivory female you'd become almost all ivory with a possibility of like 20% or less existence xanthous depending on genes. If the black mated with the ivory it is likely that 100% will be blackness the aforementioned as the father. If she mated with both theoretically you could get up to nigh 20% white and the rest would be black, but virtually likely they will all exist black.

Hey thanks!! I will edit the post equally it isn't very articulate. I'd like to make a guide for other people bc I couldn't find any info most when I needed it. I was searching then hard for sites or forums to assistance know what color my babies would be.

In the commencement and 2nd moving-picture show, I see the gold babies but what color were the other ones? Could I add that picture to my postal service? (I volition of course give credit )

Well things accept non gone skilful with my clutches. Very beginning i was laid on Feb.17 and it all the same has non hatched.

The second and third ane was laid between March 3 and March 11. Then nosotros volition meet how these two clusters become.

Y'all can tell 10 minutes after they're born. If you tell me the parents colors, I can tell y'all the what colour they'll be. Information technology's complicated genetics just I've been breeding them for years so I've got it downwardly. If they're not a sellable color you should consider only hatching 1.

what are the about sellable colors?

Well things have non gone good with my clutches. Very start ane was laid on Feb.17 and it still has non hatched.

How are they?

Wow!!!! I'll accept to accept a meliorate look at that subsequently. Thank you!

I love this chart. I have bout ten clutches. Yesterday was the 14 day mark for the first 1. I'm and then excited.Whatever tips? I'm afraid they are either too dry or also wet. My trapdoor snails have produced maybe xv babies. I actually hope My mysteries turn out. I take got the infant fever ❤️❤️

so far I've hatched three clutches (aforementioned parents) and I have about 350 blueish baby snails. At that place's no deviation in colour, they all look the same. I'thousand non familiar with breeding, I'm simply wanting to know if that's normal? The male parent is bluish and the mother is gold

Information technology may be similar a dominant/recessive kind of thing. I past no ways know nearly dominance of mystery snail genes, but perhaps blue is dominant and yellowish is recessive?

And then this sent me down a chip of a rabbit hole of Mystery Snail genetics, apparently there are a number of factors that play into what colour their shells will be. I... didn't find an answer but yeah interesting stuff.

I simply hatched well-nigh v different clutches from my mystery snails. Male is gilded and females are ivory and magenta. Some of the babies shells look kind of green, however the human foot is notwithstanding pale. Could these babies be jade? I was hoping for some jade. I accept some ivory, gold, light imperial and pink for sure. They are simply ii weeks old. How long before I would possibly know if they are jade?

Do you lot have any pictures? Might be easier for someone to tell

I will accept to come across if I tin. I am not very tech savy. My husband tin can help me when he gets home. Later I will try and post some pictures.

Jade is xanthous shell with a dark foot. Do any of the parents take dark bodies? Even if not they could behave the factor. So there's a good chance you lot could accept some jade since you exercise have yellow shells in the convenance mix.

heidi80

  • #36
I do have dark pes mystery'south in my tank all the same none of them are the parents! LOL And so I guess these babies are merely a darker gilded then. I was not sure if Jade could have a light foot. Thank you for the reply. I am for sure going to keep one of these darker vanquish babies. I really desire to see how many color varieties I tin can become!

Depending on whether a night body is dominant or recessive, it is possible to have jade. My mystery snail babies seem to all be gold, however the mom is gold and the dad is ivory

Based on my experience I'd say the nighttime trunk is indeed dominant and lite torso recessive. I've bred dejection together and gotten the odd ivory in those batches.
